THE DREAM COME ALIVE

THE DREAM COME ALIVE 

She holds her
In her arms...
She rocks her
Gently.

Her dream
Has taken breath
How precious she is...

The world beyond 
Is cruel
It snatches the soul
Leaving the body
Bereft and unwhole.

How can she
Protect the one
She has birthed?

Shall she keep
Her young
Forever in an 
Embrace
Or will it be
Easier to
Hold her prisoner 
Instead of letting 
Her fall
Into the traps
Of bad fate?

She must be 
Happy...
The little one
Must live
And not wilt away
As she did...

How will it
Come to be
The joy of
The living dream?

Tears flow 
Like slow moving
Streams...

She knows
Let her go, she has to
If she wants her 
To live and not
Just be...

One day ,the 
Living dream 
Will hold her own 
Dream come to 
Life..

She will then
Know 
The best way to 
Decide 
On how to 
Let her
Little one 
Live her life...!
